No, it is not too late to reverse the trajectory of climate change or to substantially limit its severity, though some impacts are already irreversible on human timescales, and fully returning to a pre-industrial climate is not realistic in the near term. Climate change is not a binary “on/off” or “saved/doomed” situation—every fraction of a degree of avoided warming reduces risks, damages, and lo

Some key sources for more depth.No, it is not too late to limit the worst effects of climate change or reverse its upward trajectory, but it is too late to fully reverse all changes or easily return to a pre-industrial climate on human timescales. Some impacts are already locked in, the window for the most ambitious goals is closing rapidly (or has closed for no-overshoot 1.5°C), and success requi

No, it is not too late to reverse the trajectory of climate change or limit its worst effects, though some changes are already irreversible on human timescales, and the window for keeping warming as low as possible is rapidly closing. 1.
